Contacted Xfinity (ISP to no avail). Xfinity transferred call to Netgear Support Netgear Support had tried to get me logged onto 192.168.0.1. Then the call dropped.
Can this problem be fixed or should I buy a new product?
Any recommendations?
Thank you.

Hi
I was just about to post that the issue has been resolved.
An Xfinity tech came out. He, along with an in-office agent, figured out the provisioning was not done. The in-office tech had to "rebuild the home phone number" into the new modem. After a restart of the modem, the phone lines are operable.

Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
